ABSTRACT

Big Data concern large-volume, complex, growing data sets with multiple, autonomous sources.
With the fast development of networking, data storage, and the data collection capacity, Big Data
are now rapidly expanding in all science and engineering domains, including physical, biological
and biomedical sciences. This paper presents a HACE theorem that characterizes the features of
the Big Data revolution, and proposes a Big Data processing model, from the data mining
perspective. This data-driven model involves demand-driven aggregation of information sources,
mining and analysis, user interest modeling, and security and privacy considerations. We analyze
the challenging issues in the data-driven model and also in the Big Data revolution.
